I originally thought there would be a big battle when entering the tomb, but nothing happened.
I don't know whether he was trapped and couldn't get out, or he was too afraid to come out. In short, His Highness had already walked to the coffin, and not a single ghost had appeared yet.
Hu Sandao expressed that he was a little confused. This was different from what he thought.
Therefore, knowledge is very important.
Qi Bao'er and Prince Renyin were already slowly circling the coffin, their eyes scanning the coffin as if they were trying to spot a flower on it.
Hu Sandao didn't understand what they were doing for a moment, but fortunately he was so knowledgeable about practical matters that he couldn't afford to offend either of them. If he couldn't understand, just don't understand, there was no shame in it.
But he didn't dare to go far and followed closely behind Crown Prince Renyin.
About a quarter of an hour later, Qi Baoer stood still and said, "You guys go out first."
He started to take out something from his side pocket, a brush engraved with a golden dragon and glowing with golden light.
As soon as the golden pen came out, even Prince Renyin and Hu Sandao who were close to each other felt uncomfortable; it was obvious that this was something that even the Ghost Emperor and Ghost King could restrain or even harm.
But Crown Prince Renyin did not leave obediently immediately. Instead, he looked at Qi Bao'er worriedly and said, "Your Highness, are you planning to seal the evil thing inside?"
Qi Bao'er didn't reply to it, but just glanced at it lightly.
Prince Renyin's eyes flashed slightly, and he dragged Hu Sandao away without further words this time.
Hu Sandao was completely bewildered when he was dragged out of the tomb by Crown Prince Renyin. After he stood still, he finally came to his senses and asked, "Prince, what is the situation now?"
Why can't it understand it at all?
Perhaps because of their friendship with Diudiu while visiting the tomb together, Crown Prince Renyin did not continue to ignore Hu Sandao this time. The main reason was that he was very nervous at the moment and wanted to talk.
"Do you know why there are no ghosts here?"
Hu Sandao shook his head. If it knew, it wouldn't ask.
Prince Renyin looked at the coffin, "They were all devoured by the evil things in the coffin. If I'm not mistaken, the people who originally built this place were planning to use the evil things in the coffins to cultivate evil ghosts, but now the seal has faded, and it has changed."
The evil ghosts here have become nourishment for the things in the coffin."
Hu Sandao gasped, "If not tens of thousands of people died in this big tomb, there were thousands. If these were all swallowed by the evil things in the coffin, how evil would it be?"
"Dozens of times stronger than me." Crown Prince Renyin looked solemn.
It didn't want to admit it, but it had to admit that it was also fed by the other party and was close to the existence of the Ghost Emperor.
There is only one opportunity left for it to break through the barriers and ascend to the rank of Ghost Emperor.
But what is more realistic is that when it first became Apiao, it was just a ghost king. It took the other party a hundred years to feed it to its current strength.
But the evil thing in the coffin in front of me is different. It was originally a very powerful evil thing, and it was sealed in the coffin by the evil cultivator.
The other party originally wanted to seal it and at the same time draw out the evil energy in the coffin to nourish the ghosts outside and turn them into ghosts for his own use, but now that the seal has faded, the person inside the coffin is unwilling and draws out the ghosts outside.
Let's nourish ourselves.
Hu Sandao looked at Prince Renyin in bewilderment, his eyes clearly written: How do you know this?
Haven't you heard that Crown Prince Renyin also knows metaphysics?
Prince Renyin seemed to understand what he meant, "Taoist Master Qingyang has many books on this subject, and I will read them in my spare time."
Taoist Master Qingyang was the elder of the orthodox Shangqing Sect. At that time, many inheritances of the Shangqing Sect were still there, including those that recorded evil arts.
Prince Renyin often stayed at Taoist Priest Qingyang's house during his lifetime. He was not interested in mystical arts, nor did he have the wisdom to learn it. As he said, he would read it when he had free time, but his memory was too good.
, I will remember everything that should be remembered or not.
Speaking of Taoist Master Qingyang, in fact, many records of the Shangqing Sect related to evil arts were destroyed by Taoist Master Qingyang. This is related to the scandal of the Shangqing Sect. Taoist Master Qingyang is afraid that some people will use evil spirits.
Because magic could harm people, he destroyed all the records of the witchcraft in the Shangqing Sect before going into seclusion.

He Shangshu was stunned for a moment before he realized that he had just lost his composure and lost the calmness and rationality that a Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice should have. As soon as he heard that the skin on his back was peeled off, he felt that the two cases could be classified as the same one, instead of waiting for the autopsy results to come out.
Say it again.
"It is the lower official who knows the crime..."
Jun Jinlan raised her hand to block the salute he was about to make, "Master He is dedicated to serving the people, so there is no need to blame yourself. Master He is angry at what happened during this trip, and I can understand it."
At this time, the old man pushed the door open and came out. After closing the door, he took off the cloth tied around his face and hung it around his neck. At the same time, he handed the record in his hand to He Shangshu.
"Sir, the preliminary results have been recorded in it." The old man paused for a moment, as if he was struggling with something, his face twitched, and finally he came close to Master He and whispered a few words in his ear.
Because the position where Jun Jinlan was standing was not at the door, the old man had not noticed Jun Jinlan's existence for a while. Otherwise, he would not have dared to whisper to Lord He in front of Prince Lan unless he had given him ten courages.
"Are you sure?" Mr. He's hair stood up after hearing this.
"Not sure." The old man gave him a look. There was no basis for it. How could he be sure?
That is to say, he has been involved in various cases during long-term autopsies. The more he heard about it, the more ideas he had, and that's when he came up with speculations.
I'm not sure, it's Mr. He's turn to be confused.
I can guess, but he can’t!
But after looking at the preliminary autopsy results, he actually had the same guess as Lao Xu.
King He Lan, should he say it or not?
Jun Jinlan walked over slowly, "There's no one else here today, let's just chat for a while."
He is not the kind of person who is only good at bureaucracy and will hold on to meaningless things.
Hearing what he said, He Shangshu felt a lot better. It was all for the sake of the court and not the emperor. I thought that King Lailan could accommodate a large number of people.
"Prince Lan, the result of our preliminary investigation is that the deceased was probably poisoned and was skinned after death. I suspect that someone knows about the case and is imitating the murderer's actions."
He Shangshu was also upright. He said that he suspected that this was a complete plunder.
Jun Jinlan pondered for a moment, and then solemnly explained to Master He: "This matter is of great importance, and I will go to the palace immediately to meet with the Holy Majesty.
Wu Zuo first examined the corpse and found out exactly what kind of poison it was and where the poison came from as soon as possible.
First, arrest everyone in this mansion for questioning one by one, and the case must be concluded as soon as possible."
After saying this, Jun Jinlan turned around and left quickly.
"Prince Lan, you are here." Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, He Shangshu rushed to Jun Jinlan in two steps.
"It's only been a few days and another murder case has occurred. This group of people is so rampant. This shows that they don't take the Ministry of Punishment, the court, and the Holy Emperor seriously."
The official spoke in official language, and He Shangshu was already getting angry. But when he got angry, instead of swearing, he habitually threw a bunch of hats at the murderer.
"The body has been identified?" Are you sure it's the same case as Miss Lu Si's?
